RE: Diary: Just Another Day // Motivation - DIY Progress Jar
I appreciated the video and words about gratitude. With the passing of my sweetheart Marcia Mandle,for whom I dearly loved, I have learned that grief is gratitude. I thank God for the 4 years and 12 days we shared as a couple. She died December 12, 2016 at the age of 62 from a blood clot to the lung. This was 6 days after having eye surgery. since that time I have been soooo grateful for having her in my life. From time to time I journal as well. It may be on Steemit, Facebook or a private written journal between God and me. However I find it therapeutic. With tears in my eye I again say thanks for sharing about gratitude. If you want I will provide you a link of the last blog of her on Steemit. Otherwise again thanks Mrs. Steemit. - Troy
I'm sorry for your loss and glad that it brought to you a beautiful feeling that I hope carries you to the greatest destinations of your dreams...gratefulness. I can only imagine how you feel, but I can relate to writing as a form of therapeutic dealing with something. Steemit for sure is a great platform to share something personal and receive actual sympathy. Feel free to share the link! Blessings to you :)
Thank you for your kindness Mrs. Steemit. Yes I have learned that you never get over grief. You learn to live with it and it shapes you into a new person. You absorb it and grow from it. There is no time frame. I so miss Marcia every day. writing and journaling has helped me in a spiritual way. Still today I ask God to tell her I love her and tell her how grateful I am for the beautiful things we shared. I hope and pray to see her again one day Mrs. Steemit and once again share that love. I don't know what all heaven will be like but I hope to hold her again one day and feel that closeness. I mention her from time to time in some of my blogs. Here is the last one I did that you may enjoy. Thanks so much! God Bless. - Troy https://steemit.com/christian-trail/@enjoywithtroy/marcia-and-troy-a-love-story-of-gratitude-and-god-eternal-question-enjoy-with-troy
